Abstract

In this study the major geometrical d esign issues of Jail Road Underpass, Lahore has been highlighted. All
the underpasses are constructed to favor the fast moving traffic/through traffic, which in case of Lahore city is right hand
traffic. The jail road underpass has been constructed on the left hand side vilating the international design standards.
This creates the potential hazardous conflict points posing serious threats to the safety of commuters.The aim of this
study is to determine the existing Level of service of Jail road underpass and suggest suitable geometric design
improvements to esure the smooth flow of traffic.
